Hi I have been working with children for about 10 years and have worked with several orgs regarding childcare like big brothers big sisters, corporate kids events, and Campfire Patuxent located in Greenbelt. I was also a childcare assistant working with toddlers and infants so I know the ropes when working with all ages. If you want to talk more feel free to message me!

Hello! After 16 months caring for a wonderful baby girl who is now starting daycare, I am looking for a new full-time position with a loving family. I have a soft spot for babies and truly enjoy caring for them. I bring over 19 years of experience, and caring for children is more than a job for me — it’s something I do with my whole heart. I also help with light housekeeping and cooking to support the whole family. I am a fluent French speaker and speak limited English. However, many families have found this to be a positive — the little girl I’ve cared for recently now says several words in French! I don’t just meet a baby’s basic needs — I actively engage with them through creative play, singing, and activities that support early language development. I love singing to babies and watching how they light up with joy during interactive play. Helping little ones learn and grow through connection and care is something I truly enjoy. I’m reliable, nurturing, and ready to bring love and support to a new home. I’m happy to provide references from my current family. Please reach out if you’d like to learn more. 💕

We love Olive! It's quite obvious that her gift is taking care of babies. She cared for my six month old and he loved her soothing energy and playfulness. The one thing we loved about her was her attention on our baby. Some people just do the bare minimum to make sure the baby is fed, clean, etc, but Olive actually engages plays and sings to the baby constantly. It's so sweet. We 1000% recommend her.

Hi! My name is Eri and I am a mom of 2 energetic boys(4y and 8y). 🌸Why🌸 I simply want to help moms(and dads) in need! When my boys were younger, I always wished to have the babysitter who is reliable, affordable and responsible so I decided to become the one🙋🏻♀️ 🌸How🌸 Making kids smile is one of my specialties! While your children are with me, they will be smiling😊 I don’t depend on electric devices so I will read books with them, play board games, card games, puzzles and even teach them Japanese! 🌸When🌸 I’m available while my kids are in school but if you would like me to watch your children longer, we can talk through and find out the best way that works for both of us! 🌸🌸Thank you for reading my bio!🌸🌸 I look forward to playing with your little one(s)!!

Eri was fantastic. She was reliable and impeccably punctual. She always kept me in the loop throughout the day with pictures of my son and all the fun activities they were doing. The hardest part of moving out of state is going to be trying to find another babysitter as excellent as Eri. I cannot recommend her enough.

Hello! I’m Amarachi A. I’m a licensed social worker. I’m a fun-loving babysitter and I simply enjoy creating enriching experiences for kids. I run a summer camp in Baltimore so I have experience with up to 25 children at a time. I have been a private nanny for years as well so I have experience with all ages, from birth to age 16, as well as experience with dietary restrictions and medical complexities. Due to the nature of my current employment, I am background tested in the State of Maryland and am able to provide that documentation upon request. I look forward to caring for your children!

Hi! I’m Theresa, a nurturing and reliable caregiver with over 10 years of childcare experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I’ve worked with families in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Arkansas providing full-time, part-time, and homework/homeschooling support. My approach is inspired by the Montessori method — encouraging independence, creativity, and confidence through hands-on learning and gentle structure. I love setting up engaging, developmentally appropriate activities that spark curiosity and joy while maintaining a calm, organized routine. I bring patience and consistency to every day. I previously worked as an assistant teacher at a Montessori school, and I hold a B.A. from Thomas More College of Liberal Arts. Families describe me as dependable, communicative, and genuinely caring. I value creating a safe, positive environment where children can thrive emotionally and intellectually.

Theresa really stood out to us as someone who is extremely reliable and responsive. Theresa nannied for my 2.5 year old son, and we had a great experience. She planned fun activities and encouraged my son's development. She was very accommodating with her schedule to meet our needs. Theresa was always on-time and willing to jump in and offer up ideas for activities and goals. My son had a great time with Theresa and we highly recommend her for future positions!

Cheryl was absolutely wonderful with our 4 year old! He immediately took to her and there were no tears when we left. She even brought over some fun stickers and crafts to play with. Cheryl is very thoughtful and communicative. We'd love to have her look after our little one again.

Ms. Sheri is a Godsend. I hired her for a sitting job for a family BBQ. Not only did she and her daughter sit for the two children in attendance but also were a tremendous help with prepping for the party and assisted in the kitchen and grill during the party. I will hire her again without hesitation.

Hi families! I’m Victoria, a BLS/CPR-certified nursing student currently earning my RN, with the goal of becoming a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. Nursing is my third degree—I also hold a B.S. in Biology and a Master’s in Public Health from Columbia University. I have 3 years of paid childcare experience and over 10 years of experience working with children in educational and community settings. My childcare experience includes working in a daycare, teaching 3rd-grade science, and tutoring children of different ages. I’ve always loved creating an environment where children feel safe, comfortable, and excited to learn. I enjoy reading, arts and crafts, outdoor activities, educational games, science experiments, homework help, and finding creative, screen-free ways to have fun. While earning my master’s in New York City, I developed an even greater appreciation for child development and the importance of positive, supportive relationships during childhood. That experience helped inspire my decision to pursue pediatric nursing and dedicate my career to caring for children and families. As a sitter, I’m kind, patient, attentive, dependable, and safety-conscious. I’m comfortable balancing fun with routines and boundaries while making sure children feel heard, encouraged, and cared for. I’m also happy to provide tutoring or additional educational support when needed. I have reliable transportation and drive a newer Volvo XC40, which I chose with safety in mind. I also understand that every family’s schedule is different, so I offer flexible availability, including early mornings, daytime care, evenings, and late nights. Whether you need regular support, help around your work or school schedule, or a dependable sitter for date nights, I’d love to be someone your family can count on!
